We want you to cut the commute, beat working alone and improve your quality of life. Enjoy up to three days at one of Meath’s Connected Hubs until 25th May 2024.
County Meath has sustained rapid population growth over the last 20 years. This rapid growth has not been matched by the growth of sustainable employment within the county. 19% of Meath’s commuters spend more than one hour each way commuting to work. This negatively impacts on family life, the community and the environment.
GoRemote is Meath County Council’s campaign to highlight the opportunities in community organisations and businesses providing options for workers. Workers who could work remotely but don’t have the home facilities, the environment to facilitate it or would simply like to work in an office closer to home.
The campaign links with Connectedhubs.ie, a national hubs platform provides provide a simple easy booking system to access co-working spaces across the county. The Council is also working with Grow Remote to promote the remote working opportunities for the highly skilled work force who want to change jobs to improve their quality of life.

Across the County, remote working hubs can provide the opportunity for workers to reduce their commute and find a welcoming space to meet other remote workers from a variety of industries. Hubs can provide that office like environment, saving workers from loneliness, the costs of travel and home heating. Meath’s Hubs can also help employers outsource the usual worries of opening in a new location, allows you to expand your business and recruit staff without needing to move offices or increase the floor space.
